@Newify on local variable declaration fails to resolve class expression

Details

Description

If I use @Newify on a local variable declaration, I am getting an error that the class value is not resolvable.

@Newify(Date)
def d = Date(1234L)

results in:

Script1.groovy: 1: Error during @Newify processing. Annotation parameter must be a class or list of classes but found an unresolvable reference to 'Date'.
@ line 1, column 9.
@Newify(Date)
^

It looks like org.codehaus.groovy.classgen.VariableScopeVisitor.visitDeclarationExpression is missing a call to visitAnnotations. Classes, fields, and methods all have this call. When I add it, the VariableExpression resolves to a ClassExpression as expected.
